An optical fiber is stretched gradually; which consequence regarding signal integrity follows from this deformation?

💡 Explanation

The bit error rate remains invariant because continuous deformation (stretching) represents a homeomorphism (topological equivalence), preserving the fundamental properties of the signal's topological space; therefore, the fiber's functionality is maintained rather than disrupted unless physical limits are reached.

• If a self-regulating HVAC system in a museum uses temporal logic to maintain stable humidity, which consequence follows when a specification requires humidity to be *always* within bounds?
• A university schedules final exams, aiming to minimize conflicts. What happens to the number of distinct exam slots required if a small group of students retakes multiple courses?
